Reading Right Now
It’s raining, we’re reading, and these are the books Josie and I have been loving lately.
Moo, Baa, La La La! By Sandra Boynton. It just wouldn’t by a Sandra book if it wasn’t silly mixed with educational. Love this book for the fun AND the early language practice.
All Kids Are Good Kids By Judy Carey Nevin, Illustrated by Susie Hammer. Wonderful illustrations here and a message I worth reading again and again and again.
100 First Words by Edward Underwood. Again with the great illustrations. Also, we didn’t notice until we bought it but the dog is labeled “sheepdog” and it looks just like our doggo, Wilson. We give this book 5 stars!
Night-Night Little Pookie By Sandra Boynton. Still big Pookie fans over here. I actually considered making Josie’s first birthday themed around Little Pookie but I just couldn’t find any pig party stuff that was cute like Pookie. I’m releasing the idea to anyone who can pull it off!
Rain by Linda Ashman, Illustrated by Christian Robinson. I was so excited to come across a Christian Robinson illustrated book in board book form. The book parallels a grumpy man upset about the rain and an optimistic boy loving the rain. It’s perspective, and one of my favorite life reminders that you can choose, make, and spread joy in any kind of day, despite perhaps unfavorable outside circumstances.
Peek-A-Who by Nina Laden. Another good language development book and one that Josie loves turning each of the pages again and again and again.
Happy Reading!
